How about a bicycle inner tube patch? Those are generally resilient to the elements.

Or an air mattress patch, or a pool liner patch, or a jetski seat repair patch...




I was thinking of a truck wheel patch, but I'd like to be sure there won't be any stains, and that the glue won't react with the detergent, for example. I don't know if it's possible.


In that case I think you want something that will 'vulcanize' with the material in the gasket, rather than being adhered... I don't know if that's feasible for your exact material but I know there are methods of rubber patching that are more akin to welding than glueing.


Yes, something like that crossed my mind also, but it could be that it's not feasible in small diy work. Have to check.
